Microclear CEO 48 and 24
Cerium Oxide Polishing Slurries
MICROCLEAR CEO 48 and 24 Polishing Slurries are designed to fit the needs of polishing processes that require an extremely high surface quality and very low surface roughness. These slurries uses a 99% pure CeO2 manufactured in our unique milling and formulating process. These processes are closely controlled to ensure consistent performance from each and every batch. Our research and development team designed these polishing compounds to create dynamic finishes on both soft and hard surfaces such as optical glass, crystal and quartz.
